it hurts...

Not feeling top shape today. Started yesterday with a little bit of stuffiness in the back of the head, in the morning, and the back of the throat felt like it ballooned by the evening. Anyhow, smart cookie as I am, I decided to make some pretty darn hot chicken and corn soup with lots of pepper. Right on the first sip, I burned my tongue and the roof of my mouth. God I hate it when that happens, feels like a million precious taste buds just died. Anyhow, at some point I felt a piece of corn's pellicle... except it was a pretty darn big pellicle. As I chewed, it tugged my mouth... wtf? then I realized that the skin on the roof of my mouth got burned off.... and I was eating it. Mmmm.

Anyhow, it was pretty flavourless, I spat it out...

I don't know what's more gross, this story or the one where I woke up and sneezed out a dead spider. I'd say the dead spider - although had I swallowed the skin maybe I would have topped it. I donno. Why are we debating this?
